The Eagles are tough. They basically had that game won; the defense shut down Favre and the Pack. The only Packer TD came off the muffed punt recovered for a TD. And then the Eagles muffed another punt to give the Pack another 3 points.

We can't count on muffed punts, we'll have to play perfect football. The Eagles are very good.

Trent Green did look more like the Green of 2005 than he did post injury last year. He played as well as any QB is going to play against us this season.

Brown didn't play a whole lot in this game, but was effective while in. Still, Westbrook is a much bigger challenge next week. I don't think we will be able to stop him.

Then again, I don't think they will be able to stop us. It will be a good one.

This our first true test to see if we are for real. Playing a pretty pissed off team in their stadium and beating them there would say a lot about this team. The Skins have to go there with a chip on their shoulder having been swept by the eagles last season, my guess is the eagles aren't the only pissed off team. This game will be war, the hungrier team wins. I think I know who that is.

McNabb is always a good test for a defense. The great defenses always make him look like a confused rookie, and the weak defenses look foolish trying to chase him all over.

It will be interesting to see where we lie, and it will be nice to know that unlike the Dallas game last year, we won't be looking 0-2 in the face if we fail.

We have a lot of paybacks to collect on this season, the Skins should take to the mentality of Charles Bronson in "death wish" or Jodie Foster's new movie "the brave one". KICK THEIR ASS AND DRAG THEM OFF THE FIELD!!! Man, I'm already fired up for next week.

Yeah I was watching the Packers game as well because my friend is a huge fan. They are underrated and have a pretty good defense.

What I thought was interesting is that they pretty much never run, but the Eagles get constantly scrutinized by the media when their pass heavy game plan doesn't work.

Play perfect football and create turnovers. I hope it's close and we give ourselves a chance.

I think if McNabb is 15 for 33 again we might have a shot.

It's going to be rough on both teams next week. I'm glad we were able to stick a win to the Fins in overtime. Our guys should be pretty pumped up, and the Eagles are going to be pissed. We'll need to pressure Donavan, and try to find a way to stop Westbrook, he's a beast.

I don't think you can put those int's only on Campbell. It did look like cooley was letting the ball come to him instead of going to the ball and Lloyd did his best not to get in the way of that pick in the endzone.

Im not sure if we can win this one guys.

That's some good analysis.

We can win any game. This one looks very winnable. The Eagles lost their best CB to a knee sprain, and even if he makes it back to the field, he won't be 100%. McNabb looked poor, completing less than 50% of his passes, and special teams looked mediocre, with a muffed punt to give Green Bay their only TD.

Not to say we'll be favored, or that it's a lock, but we should be right there with this team.

**ATTENTION ANYONE GOING TO THE GAME**

I went to a Sunday night game two years ago vs. the eagles and made a sweet sign. Anyone going should really consider:

Eagles
Suck
Penis
Nightly

You are guaranted to get on tv. I would have but a police officer took my sign away.
Also you may want to consider using Portis for the "P" for a less offensive sign!

I very highly doubt that anyone will get on TV with a sign referencing "sucking penis" or "sucking Portis"...

It is a funny idea though.

To say you can't see them winning the game then you must have 0% faith in our team, coaches, and players. Why even watch the game.
